Sixth Sunday of Easter

Christ promises two gifts in today's Gospel passage - the gift of peace, and the presence of an Advocate, the Holy Spirit. He does not give these as the world gives, with strings, expectations, or the threat of withdrawing it. All the same, have we accepted those gifts - have we asked for his peace and the Holy Spirit? If He is giving us the Advocate (in Greek, Paraclete) to 'call to' (the literal meaning of both words) our side, shouldn't we call Him, especially in matters of how we are to live?
